A blog about a mother, her clothes, her daughter, and healing from loss.

Day Two....

February 24, 2014

Whoa Nelly! (who as you can see by the tag, hand made this shirt in Mexico for sale in Myrtle and Palm Beaches Natch!) There is something about a fun novelty shirt that say's "HELLO! Yes, I'd love to chat, why else would I be wearing this shirt?" This shirt say's "I am fun, cheeky, and unafraid of what you think of me." Mom, that was you in a nutshell. Thank you for giving me that gift. I treasure it every day. xoxo.

This Blog comes from the heart and mind, (but mostly from the heart), of Amy Sklar, interior designer, mother, daughter, foodie, and lover of fashion.

I must admit, the driving force behind this blog was my need to somehow, some way, create a tribute to my dear mother Carole Lawrence. She was a great beauty, chef, friend and mother. Sadly, I lost her to cancer February 23rd 2013. Since beginning on February 23rd 2014 it has been my goal to wear a piece of her clothing, jewelry, or an accessory that she passed on to me, for a total of 365 days (Not in a row, sorry, I am also a mother of two, a small business owner, wife and friend. I tried to do it in a row, and it almost broke me.) I believe it is a fitting tribute to this incredible woman with the greatest sense of style I've ever known. A digital archive, a love letter, a journal, a remeberance for your children and future generations. I love you mom.
